A flake to avoid on ebay

A kid using their parents Ebay account, or just buyer's remorse. Could also be somebody needed some card ASAP and ordered a few of them and opened claims once he got one in that works?

Yeah could be anything but a bunch of weird messages leads me to believe the guys a nut. I was on the phone with eBay this morning. I asked what I should do. They said just do a refund for 1 card (I of course have to pay return shipping). They told me if I get the card and it works I could file an appeal and claim against him for misuse of returns and get my shipping money back. I never knew you could do that in the 25 years I have been selling. Will they honor that? Who knows.

They would probably cut you some slack maybe, but it's not like you will take Ebay to court.

I didn't know about the chargeback ability on working returns. Ebay just takes a debit from the guys Paypal linked to Ebay if they want to.
 
I remember once ordering a SanDisk memory card on eBay and soon realizing that the card was most likely counterfeit. I wrote to the seller asking to cancel the order, he replied that the card was real and after a long correspondence he wrote that I was a fool because I couldn't even spell the brand name correctly. Now I understand why I wrote SunDisk in a hurry.

I had to call ebay again as the card sent back to me worked fine. They then told me I needed to do an "appeal" to get my shipping back... I have done this in the past. It never works. I dont expect it to work this time either so that was just anyother bunch of crap where the buyer has all the rights and can say and do as they want.
